  • Philips confirms Outdoor Lightstrip, other new Hue lights on the way

    you know what a great feature would be? Figuring out how to make a lightbulb for less than $50 per bulb.
    It’s not even a question. I mean, the entire industry is (PURPOSELY) doing everything wrong. All of the hardware should be as stupid as possible so that it remains easily interchangeable. The “smart” device should be the wall socket. How often do you replace those? And they’re room-specific. Rather than having to remember to “reassign my lamp” like some sort of dystopic nega-future, you can swap your lighting fixtures all you want and your room assignments all stay the same.

    Additionally, someone should do a case study on how often the different colors of lighting are even used, because what on Earth kind of feature is that.

  • McDonald's in Chicago is the latest Apple Store copycat - but not the first by far

    Well now we know what a Apple store looks like if they were a fast food store.
    Sometimes I feel like a great chef who has devoted his entire life to monastic study of the art of cooking. I gathered the finest ingredients and built the most advanced kitchen and prepared the most exquisite meal–so perfect, so delicious, so extraordinary; more astounding than any meal ever created. Yet each day I stand in my window and watch 97% percent of the world walk past my restaurant into the McDonald’s across the street. – Fake Steve Jobs

  • Unicode 12 emoji shortlist includes 55 gender & skin tone combos for couples holding hands...

    Funny that it’s always the hetero white males who say people need to stop being so sensitive and accept the historic status quo. I wonder why that is..... Oh yeah because the status quo has always been white heterosexual males.
    Funny how still you have no argument. Mods, just wipe the comments and lock the thread. Unicode doesn’t need any of this.

  • Samsung Galaxy Home will fight smart speakers from Apple, Amazon & Google

    Samsung Galaxy Home
    IT’S. BEAUTIFUL. I don’t believe it. I honestly don’t believe it. It’s a joke, right? Like, this is a parody of what Samsung would create. Right? This is like what a 30 year old unmarried whore buys to compliment her nightly glass of red wine as she waxes quixotic before Bixby (which, itself, MUST–absolutely MUST–be a parody of the name of an assistant you’d actually want to have).

    Spindly little legs. I love it.

  • Apple wants iPhone to be proof of identity and replace passports

    1. Bar / clubs / casinos
    2. Picking up tickets at a will-call window
    3. Checking in to a hotel room
    4. Grocery store (buying alcohol or cigarettes)
    5. Renting a car
    6. TSA checkpoints
    I now understand why I never really need my license.
